Area Forecast Discussion...Updated Aviation Discussion
National Weather Service Pendleton OR
1010 AM PDT WED AUG 17 2016

.UPDATE....A weak trough of low pressure will be over the area today.
However there will be little moisture associated with it. So a
continuation of sunny and hot weather is expected. As a trough
sharpens over the northern Rockies on Thursday northerly flow will
increase and could result in fire weather concerns. This will also
result in slightly cooler temepratures for Friday. Current forecast
is on track for today and tonight with just minor changes to the
wind forecast. 78

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 416 AM PDT WED AUG 17 2016/

SHORT TERM...Today through Friday...General Overview....Very warm
and dry for the short term.  Breezy conditions expected Thursday
evening and Friday across the Lower Columbia Basin.  No
precipitation expected in the short term and skies will be mostly
clear.  Patchy smoke will be possible along southeast Grant County
where the Rail Fire currently burns.  Highs will be in the mid 90s
to lower 100s today and tomorrow across the lower elevations with
mid 80s to lower 90s mountains.  By Friday highs will be in the mid
80s to lower 90s across the lower elevations, with upper 70s to mid
80s mountains.

Technical Synopsis...Dry westerly flow will shift out of the
northwest through tomorrow, as a ridge of high pressure from the
Pacific attempts to build over the inland Pacific Northwest. This
will present the very warm temperatures mentioned above.  However, a
fast moving disturbance will hinder the eastward progression of the
ridge on Thursday evening into Friday as it clips eastern Washington
and Oregon.  Although the moisture will be isolated to the
Idaho/Montana area there will be tight northerly pressure gradients
set up.  This will promote the breezy to windy conditions, mainly
over the Lower Columbia Basin and adjacent valleys, Thursday evening
into Friday.  This same system will allow for temperatures to cool
